Background
The protein encoded by this gene is an omega class glutathione S-transferase (GST). GSTs are involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics and carcinogens. Four transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010],
Function
catalytic activity:RX + glutathione = HX + R-S-glutathione.,similarity:Belongs to the GST superfamily. Omega family.,similarity:Contains 1 GST C-terminal domain.,similarity:Contains 1 GST N-terminal domain.,tissue specificity:Expressed in a range of tissues, including the liver, kidney, skeletal muscle and prostate. Strongest expression in the testis.,
